I wanted to try growing some plants from seed that I couldn't find in local nurseries. I haven't had much luck with seedlings in the past, so got this soil as part of one of the kits sold here, with individual seeding trays, using water trays with capillary matting. I've had almost every seed sprout and the seedlings are coming along nicely.
